this was fixed way back in 535, but I wonder if there's any reason to
ship the firmware in a package that hardcodes the full version in the
package name, which makes transitionals not fully automatic
- it's not possible to have several versions of the driver installed at
the same time, and while techically the firmware files don't conflict,
packages that depend on it could be gone
- linux-firmware already has firmware blobs for nova driver, but the
names are not compatible so reuse is not a thing
** Package changed: linux-restricted-modules (Ubuntu) => nvidia-
graphics-drivers-535 (Ubuntu)
** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers-535 (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Fix Released
** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers-535 (Ubuntu)
